What's happening

  1. Aug 11, 2026

    Wrote up the cost-router benchmark and the grip security fix

    Two posts — why the cheaper-per-token model cost 2-7x more per task, and how a navigation policy enforced in one function was bypassable by the second line of the quickstart.

  2. Aug 10, 2026

    Shipped grip 0.6.0 — CLI, MCP server, and a security fix

    NavigationPolicy was enforced in one function and nowhere else, so allow_private=False was bypassable by an ordinary Page.goto(). Enforcement moved to CDP Fetch interception, plus a grip CLI and 8 MCP tools.

  3. Aug 6, 2026

    Shipped ns-ui — 298 components, live registry

    A component registry you install by URL, no package to depend on. Gated by a Playwright suite that fails any component whose hover looks identical to its resting state.

  4. Aug 4, 2026

    Released sigeval — pytest for LLMs that isn't flaky

    Evals as proportions with confidence intervals. PASS, FAIL, or INCONCLUSIVE — no more green builds flipping red on sampling noise.

  5. Jul 21, 2026

    Benchmarked the cost-router until it killed itself

    Built an event-driven LLM request pipeline, then benchmarked its cost-routing feature out of existence — the cheaper-per-token model cost 2-7x more per task.

  6. Jul 15, 2026

    Shipped Curb for the Monad Spark hackathon

    A wallet with a daily spending limit — the contract custodies your funds and refuses anything over the cap. Built, tested, security-reviewed and deployed solo.

  7. Jul 12, 2026
